Tianpeng is the peak of a great mountain, which is nearly two kilometers high, and it is also what they call the endpoint.
The reason it is called Tianpeng, Tang San only understood when he arrived here. Because on this mountaintop, there is a large tree with a vast canopy, nearly a hundred meters in diameter, covering most of the mountaintop. This is likely the origin of the name Tianpeng.
When Cheng Zicheng saw Tang San climb up, she couldn't help but be a bit surprised and smiled, saying, "Not bad stamina! I thought I'd see you on the way back."
Under Tianpeng, it wasn't just Cheng Zicheng; Mu Enqing was also there. Seeing Tang San come up, she nodded at him but didn't say anything, just raised her hand and patted him on the shoulder.
Instantly, the power that Mu Yunyu had sealed in his body disappeared, and the Xuantian Gong energy began to circulate again.
Tang San had been puzzled before; if it was a weight-sealing ability, how could he possibly return by noon? Now it seemed that the seal would be lifted upon reaching Tianpeng.
"Let's go. Hurry back and see if we can still get some food," Cheng Zicheng pulled Tang San and led the way down the mountain.
As she leaped down from the mountaintop, a strange scene unfolded. Cheng Zicheng's body glowed with a layer of orange-yellow light. In the next moment, her arms spread out, and beautiful orange feathers instantly grew from them. Her long hair also turned orange, with three plumes floating up.
With a flap of her arms, they transformed into wings. She turned back and smiled at Tang San, "I'll go ahead." As she spoke, she glided down the mountain and quickly became a small black dot.
Fly? She flew away? Isn't that cheating? Tang San opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.
What kind of demon god transformation is this? Orange feathers, and she can fly. Tang San had never seen such a demon before. But from the change in her aura after the transformation, Tang San could sense that this was a very powerful demon god transformation. Moreover, the ability to fly was extremely rare.
Sister Cheng! If my fifth imprint doesn't work, I'll choose you. Flying is one of the abilities Tang San most desires right now.
Tang San took a deep breath, and a green light enveloped his body. He suddenly leaped from the mountaintop, his eyes flashing with a spiritual light. The wind elements in the mountain were already abundant, and a large amount of wind elements immediately gathered around him. Tang San felt lighter, and he sped down the mountain. With the wind elements' enhancement, his speed was like a bolt of lightning. Although he couldn't compare to Cheng Zicheng's direct flight, it was still quite fast.
Watching him leave, Mu Enqing's eyes showed a hint of surprise.
Every student who climbs here by their own physical strength is usually very exhausted. At this point, unsealing their abilities and allowing them to regain control of their powers helps them appreciate the preciousness of the demon god transformation's abilities and better understand their bloodline powers during the return journey. This is an important reason for the physical training course's arrangement.
Just now, Mu Enqing clearly felt that although Tang San was somewhat tired, it wasn't severe. He was only nine years old! Moreover, when he left, his body didn't undergo any changes due to the demon god transformation, but his control over the wind elements was extremely strong, and the intensity of the wind elements seemed to have surpassed the fourth stage.
Originally, when the teachers learned that Tang San's ability was the Wind Wolf Transformation, they weren't very interested in this student. If it weren't for Tang San being only nine years old, they wouldn't have allowed a child with a not-so-strong demon god transformation to join the Redemption Academy.
Although the academy seems to have few people, with only a dozen students, the Redemption Academy holds a very high status within the Redemption Organization. It is specifically established to cultivate outstanding high-level talents for the Redemption. There are only nine Redemption Academies across the entire Faerie Continent, all managed by the core members of the Redemption Organization.
At this moment, when Mu Enqing saw Tang San use the Wind Wolf Transformation to control the wind elements and increase his speed, her perception of him changed.
According to the information she had, Tang San had an extraordinary ability to control wind blades, and his mental power was far beyond that of a normal person. This was evident from his ability to make the Heavenly Fox Eye of Du Bai backfire yesterday.
The Heavenly Fox Eye made Du Bai's mental power much stronger than that of his peers, and for Tang San to make his Heavenly Fox Eye backfire, his mental power must have been at least twice as strong. This was very interesting.
What most intrigued the teachers about Tang San was that the mayor had taken him as a disciple.
They knew the mayor quite well...
For lunch! Tang San ran all the way.
He now had a deeper understanding of the physical training course. The outbound journey was a test of physical strength, while the return journey was related to one's own abilities. This wasn't entirely fair, but it was an interesting form of training.
At least, his bloodline was now burning hot, and the muscle soreness was still very noticeable. When the Xuantian Gong was unsealed, its self-renewing characteristic circulated in his body, rapidly restoring his previous energy consumption. This process was beneficial for his physical training, especially since he had just broken through to the fifth stage. The physical training today was accelerating this process and even speeding up his absorption of the Wind Bear's bloodline energy.
Running all the way back, the return journey wasn't a single route. For example, Cheng Zicheng could fly, so her path was definitely different from his, who had to walk like a wolf.
Therefore, Tang San didn't encounter anyone else on the way back. But when he returned to the academy, everyone except Du Bai was already back.
His shirt was drenched in sweat, and Tang San, panting, pulled out the weight blocks from his vest, feeling somewhat helpless. He wouldn't be able to eat today.
If he hadn't followed Du Bai earlier, he might have had a chance. But this also made him clearly understand that none of the senior students in the academy were simple. On the return journey, he had used his fifth-stage cultivation and the wind elements to increase his speed, which was already quite fast, reaching about 80% of his peak level. Yet, he still couldn't surpass the others and catch up with the distance he had fallen behind.
The other students of the Redemption Academy were also surprised to see Tang San return so quickly. After all, he was only nine years old!
Mu Yunyu hadn't returned, and Tang San was about to quietly go back to his room to wash up and go hungry when Guan Longjiang walked over.
"You're participating in training for the first time today, so I won't punish you. Go wash up, and then eat with everyone else."
